Ingredients: Chicken fillet – 400 g (14.1 oz); Onion – 1 piece; Salt and pepper – to taste; Cheese – 100 g (3.5 oz); Natural yogurt – 90 g (5 tbsp); Egg – 1 piece; Sugar – 1 tbsp; Salt – 1 tsp; Milk – 80 ml; Vegetable oil – 80 ml; Flour – 350 g (2.2 cups); Baking powder – 1 tsp; Egg yolk – 1 piece; Milk – 1 tsp; Sesame seeds – for garnish

Directions

1. Step

Heat oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onion until soft. Add the chicken fillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 3–5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool.

2. Step

In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, egg, sugar, salt, milk, and vegetable oil. Add the flour and baking powder, mixing until a smooth dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 15–20 minutes.

3. Step

Mix the cooked chicken fillet with the grated cheese. Divide the dough into 10 equal portions and shape them into small rounds. Place a portion of the chicken filling in the center of each dough round and seal the edges, forming a bun.

4. Step

In a small bowl, mix the egg yolk with 1 tsp of milk. Brush the tops of the buns with the egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds over them. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown.
